Where's the nearest pub?
Feel like a beer? If you live in the UK, you can sign up to the Good Pub Guide which has gone mobile.
All you need to do to find the nearest pub is send an text message with "goodpub" to short code 85130 and you will immediately receive details of the nearest pub.
In addition, Good Pub Guide users who would prefer to only find a pub from the main entries in the guide, and/or would like to make sure that food is served, have the option of narrowing their search. [via The Register].
